Understanding Attachment and Trauma is a reflective, trauma-informed training designed for professionals working with children, young people, families, or adults in relational roles.

Drawing on knowledge of child development, attachment theory, trauma, and therapeutic practice, this training supports participants to deepen their understanding of how early experiences shape behaviour, relationships, and emotional wellbeing.
